Explanation:

In the above program, we declare the package main. The main package is used to tell the Go language compiler that the package must be compiled and produced the executable file. Here, we imported the fmt and time packages to use time and fmt related functions.

In the main() function, we used the Now() function to get current date-time and then printed date-time in different formats using the Format() function on the console screen.
